I'm in Europe and the game will sell for 60 euros off battle.net which is really quite pricey when they Europe costs tons for me now. Meanwhile people in the US pay 60 dollars, which is way less. Anyone found any great deals, either online or locally for your country ? Would be nice if we could rack up a list of the best places to buy the product from. I've heard people say they preordered it on Amazon and apparently they get it for 1/3 of the price it sells for at release day. | ||

I ordered the Collector's Edition for 799 kr, which is about €90. Cheapest I've seen for the regular edition over here is 'bout €48. | ||

In Iceland the game goes for 10.000 krónur ( 80 dollars / 531 sek ) , collectors edition for 20.000 krónur ( 160 dollars / 1062 sek. ). The inflation is pretty rampant and the main reason I want to find the best price possible. | ||

What the hell Well the collapse is part of the reason. Foreign trade for us is pretty harsh since our currency is a pile of poo. | ||

My Point: Yes its more expensive in Europe but difference is not as big as people make it out to be because the average European makes more than the average American. Therefore how $60 dollars is viewed compared to how 60 euros is viewed in their respective countries is quite similar. | ||

Now sells for £33 which for a new game really isn't too bad at all. | ||

I don't know about the legality and besides you cant play on release day. I have contacts in the UK and such. They could wire me the cd key once they get it I guess. Question is if there would be any delay in getting to play and if the delay would be worth the saved money. | ||

Online stores are roughly at 50€. I expect them (along with big local stores) to lower the price in the first 1-2 weeks to 30-35ish € - just as it happened with SC2. A good indication this will happen might be, that the game was sold for ~21 pounds at some point on amazon.co.uk with the price guarantee from amazon... too bad I couldn't pre-order it back then (as the world might know, in Germany basically no one uses/has a credit card which is required to order from the UK). | ||

Really? Germans don't use credit cards? | ||
